Question 191

You have a Gateway is running with 2 cores. You plan to add a second gateway to build a cluster and used a device with 4 cores.

How many cores can be used in a Cluster for Firewall-kernel on the new device?

    Correct Answer: B

    In a clustered environment, the number of cores used for the Firewall-kernel must be consistent across all cluster members. Since the first gateway operates with 2 cores, the new device joining the cluster should also use 2 cores to maintain consistency and proper synchronization. Therefore, in this scenario, the correct number of cores that can be utilized on the new device for the Firewall-kernel is 2.

Discussion
KurpOption: B

Answer is 2. The same number of core is required for clusterxl as connection tables are sync per kernel instance. Plus on a standalone with 4 core there can only be 3 kernel instances and one SND

SnirOption: B

CoreXL must be equal on all cluster members. Correct answer - B

arvendelOption: B

right, answer should be 2.

KrytenOption: B

B, amount of Cores must be the same in a Cluster, so only 2 usable.

StefanklOption: D

In the Question is no comment for Cluster XL, so i think 4 cores are the right answer

swindonjogger

it does say in the question "You plan to add a second gateway to build a cluster" so i would choose answer B.

dongayan

it says 2 cores used already, that means in practical cluster XL used, otherwise it only use 1 core even you have any no of cores.

KarrolOption: B

B is the correct answer. There can only be 2.

voorvdabOption: D

D-4 is correct. 2+4= 6 core and according to url below core allocation for 6-20 is = total core -2 so 6-2= 4 https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/General-Topics/Can-CoreXL-mechanizm-works-on-1-core/td-p/10776

Dotsent

How CoreXL mechanics is related to ammount of cores, which cluster will start using? Right answer should be B - 2

lagalackOption: B

B is correct. You need to have the same amout of cores on all cluster nodes.
